Detailed Solution

The 2 m high person who is holding a 25 kg trunk does not work standing at the bus-terminus.
Work done is calculated by the formula,
W=× s
Here,
F= Force is exerted by the man on the trunk.
s= Displacement of the trunk in the direction of applied force.
Since there is no displacement. S becomes 0, then
W=F×0
    =0
Work done becomes 0.
